Full Metal Jackets: Alliance November SteelBook Wave

Alliance Canada’s November SteelBook wave is now available. Get your vampire steelies, your cleric steelies, your druggie steelies and more.

‘American History X’

In this tale of two Edwards (Norton and Furlong), Norton gives a searing, Oscar-nominated performance as a reformed white supremacist who tries to straighten up his younger brother. ‘American History X’ is a great, memorable film. The SteelBook can be purchased at Amazon Canada (which will ship to the U.S.).

‘Equilibrium’

Here’s one for Josh. (Just kidding; I know how much he hates the movie.) I’m a fan of ‘Equilibrium’, personally. Unfortunately, the previous Alliance release has a cropped aspect ratio, and I’m guessing that this is just a repackage of that disc. It’s also available at Amazon Canada, but buyer beware.

‘From Dusk Till Dawn’

In Robert Rodriguez’s ‘From Dusk Till Dawn’, George Clooney and Quentin Tarantino make a run for the border and end up in the mother of all bar fights. While the disc doesn’t have any supplements, the Alliance release still blows the Echo Bridge version to hell and then some. This SteelBook can be ordered here.

‘Requiem for a Dream’

Based on the novel by Hubert Selby Jr., Darren Aronofsky’s ‘Requiem for a Dream’ is a bleak and utterly haunting portrait of drug addiction. Out of the four titles released this month, this one is my personal favorite. I just love the cover art with the giant eye. Like the others, this SteelBook is available here.
